Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed.
Chlorothalonil was reported to cause irritation of skin and mucous membranes of the eye and
respiratory tract on contact. Cases of allergic contact dermatitis have been reported. Occupational
exposure to chlorothalonil was reported to induce asthma symptoms, which resolved cessation of
exposure. No cases of systemic poisoning in humans have been reported in the published medical
literature.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed.
There is not specific antidote. Treat symptomatically.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media: Dry chemical, CO2, alcohol-resistant foam or water spray.
Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk.
Dike fire-control water for later disposal; do not scatter the
material.
Specific hazards arising from the The product is not combustible. The substance itself does not
chemical: burn but may decompose upon heating to produce irritating
and possibly toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution
water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
Special protective equipment and Wear chemical protective clothing and self-contained
precautions for fire-fighters: breathing apparatus (SCBA) with positive pressure.
6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective Use personal protective equipment. Avoid breathing
equipment: mist/vapours. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Environmental precautions: Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so.
Do not let product enter drains.
Methods and materials for Stop leak. Contain product with an inert diking material.
containment and cleaning up: Vacuum up as much as possible. Place reclaimed product in a
closed and properly labeled waste drum. Store drum in
separate area until proper disposal. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling: Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Do not breathe mist/vapours. Ensure adequate
ventilation. Wash hands and exposed skin thoroughly after
handling.
